Some in the U.K. were not pleased with her wielding a firearm, but there are more fiery things happening in the clip. After a brief acting interlude (why, yes, Britney, we DO remember "Crossroads"!) and a perfume promo, her real-life man Jason Trawick saves Spears from her awful significant other, and Spears runs off with the criminally-minded Clyde to her Bonnie.

As she croons "Mama I'm in love with a criminal," we see Spears brandish her weapon in a robbery and then find herself in a shower with Trawick. Till the cops come knocking, indeed.

Britney Spears has drawn ire from British officials after brandishing a fake gun in a music video shoot near London. Local politicians want an apology from the pop star for “promoting gun violence,” reports MTV.

In the video for her upcoming single “Criminal,” Spears runs out of a convenience store waving a fake pistol, accompanied by fiance Jason Trawick, who totes a duffel bag.

The controversial Bonnie and Clyde-esque scene was shot in the London neighborhood of Hackney, and officials there say Spears is encouraging violence in the wake of Britain’s August riots.

Ah, the perks of being a reality star. While DJing Britney Spears’ Montreal show last night, “Jersey Shore” fave Pauly D got a special show from none other than Brit Brit herself.

“Wow Got On Stage With @britneySpears And She Gave Me A Lap Dance !!!!! #DJPaulyDSwagg” Pauly tweeted. The star also posted proof of the onstage encounter in the form of a picture. In the photo, the 31-year-old cracks a huge grin as Britney sexily circles him.

Catch Pauly D on the current season of “Jersey Shore” on MTV on Thursdays at 10/9c, and catch Britney on her Femme Fatale North American tour.

The 30-second clip features a mash-up of tunes by Britney Spears and Janet Jackson. Fittingly, one poster shows Spears’ head sitting on top of Jackson’s body in her iconic Rolling Stone cover from 1993.

The "Till The World Ends" singer appears in the promo, but doesn’t join in the dancing. (Around the 10-second mark, an extra can be seen wearing the pink-thong-over-jeans and matching top she donned in her “I’m A Slave For You” video.)
